Feeling anxious about your next dental visit? Sedation dentistry can help you!
What Are the Different Types of Sedation Dentistry?
Enhance your comfort during dental appointments with these sedation dentist options:
- Oral sedation: Take oral sedatives the night before or on the day of your appointment. An anesthesiologist will monitor you as you relax during the dental work with no stress.
- General anesthesia: Also known as nitrous oxide or "laughing gas", this drug is inhaled through a mask to help you relax. It may cause temporary loss of consciousness and is typically used for complex treatments.
- Local anesthesia: Many people choose to receive local anesthesia to ensure they do not feel any pain during their dental procedure.
